The Dover Forge Restaurant would like to say thank you to all those people who made our March 1 American Red Cross community blood drive a success. We especially want to thank our three volunteers who handled registration so expertly, Linda Anelli, Bette Crawford, and Suzanne Waller.

The drive netted 22 units of whole blood in the final tally. American Red Cross site coordinator Vicki Braun noted that as a first time location, we exceeded all their expectations. Again, thank you to everyone and look for our next drive later this summer.
